Matt Asay is pushing his favorite Open Source
model again. The model where the majority of developers of a
project work for a company and that company is creating a
business around the project. There's nothing wrong with that
model, but he seems to forget the other models time over time :)

Matt is absolutely right with 2 of the 3 things he wants you to
consider.
A SI in the middle of a $50 million dollar project involving
Alfresco not talking to Alfresco is just wrong. An SI not
offering a support contract is also just wrong. But an SI forcing
his customer to buy the commercially supported version from a
vendor ? Where's the customer choice ?

The customer should have the option to choose for a commercially
supported version or the free version. And preferably that should
be an educated option.
